[ 212 Pb]VMT-a-NET in advanced SSTR2+ neuroendocrine tumors: safety and preliminary efficacy results from dose-finding cohorts 1,2 and 3

Background: [ 212 Pb]VMT-a-NET is a novel, next generation alpha therapy agent for advanced somatostatin receptor 2 positive (SSTR2+) neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Here, we present safety and efficacy update from the dose-finding phase 1/2a clinical trial (NCT05636618). Methods: Adults with well-differentiated unresectable or metastatic NETs, who were peptide receptor radionuclide therapy-naïve, showed progressive disease after at least one prior line of systemic therapy and demonstrated SSTR2-expression on PET images were treated with up to four cycles of study therapy at the assigned dose level. Participants were followed for dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) observation up to 42 days after the first dose. Efficacy was evaluated by investigators according to RECIST criteria v1.1. Results: As of 10-Dec-2025 (data cut-off [DCO]) a total of 56 participants were enrolled into Cohorts 1, 2 and 3, and received at least 1 dose of [ 212 Pb]VMT-a-NET (n=2 in Cohort 1, n=46 in Cohort 2, and n=8 in Cohort 3 at a dose level of 2.5 mCi, 5 mCi, and 6 mCi, respectively). For data analysis purposes, participants were categorized into two different groups: a safety group and an efficacy group. The safety group included all participants treated by the DCO (n=56), while the efficacy group included only the Cohort 1 participants (n=2) and the first half of participants treated in Cohort 2 (n=23). Among all participants treated with at least 1 dose of [ 212 Pb]VMT-a-NET (n=56), no DLTs, no grade 5 adverse events (AEs), no treatment-related discontinuations, no serious renal complications, no dysphagia and no clinically significant treatment-related myelosuppression were observed. Median follow-up time for all patients treated was 40 weeks (range: 6-97). Among the 25 participants followed for efficacy (n=2 in Cohort 1 and n=23 in Cohort 2), 19 out of 25 were with no progression as of the DCO. Median follow-up time for participants included in the efficacy group was 49 weeks (range: 6-97). Investigator-assessed RECIST v1.1 objective responses were observed in 9 out of 23 participants (39%) enrolled in the first half of Cohort 2 (8 confirmed). The 2 patients enrolled in Cohort 1 at 2.5 mCi still have stable disease after 2 years of follow up. Updated safety outcomes for all participants along with updated efficacy findings for participants in Cohorts 1 and 2 with sufficient maturity will be presented during the congress. Conclusions: Treatment with [ 212 Pb]VMT-alpha-NET continues to be well-tolerated among all patients treated (n=56), and to show promising efficacy at the dose levels of 2.5 mCi and 5 mCi. The study is ongoing with Cohort 3 (6 mCi) currently open for enrollment.
